Do they teach Baseball 101 in college?

Posted Jun 30, 2006

For any of you who brushed your cleats on a Little League diamond growing up, you had to hear a coach somewhere along the way utter rule No. 1A to the fellow manning the first bag: Even if the throw is off target, move off the base to field it. While many are pointing at UNC stand-in second baseman Bryan Steed when looking at the fourth and final error to cost the Tar Heels the College World Series championship on Monday night, I prefer to deflect some of the fault to first baseman Tim Federowicz.
